This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Handling and Shipping of Fresh Cherries and Prunes From the Willamette Valley: January 10, 1916 Both careful-handling and precooling investigations were con ducted with sweet cherries and prunes during the season of 1911. The work with prunes during the season of 1913 was confined largely to the precooling of carefully handled lots, there being no comparable commercially handled lots of fruit for purposes of comparison, as rainy weather during the harvesting season rather discouraged fresh fruit shipments, especially as the prices prevailing for evaporated or dried fruits were eminently satisfactory. On account of the impracticability of securing a consignment of any definite number of cars to any one market, actual shipping experiments had to be omitted during both years, and all experimental series were held in an iced car at Salem.

This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of Maturity of California Plums to Shipping and Dessert Quality Since California plums are produced two to three thousand miles from the principal eastern markets, the harvesting and shipping of them is a most important problem. Eight to twelve days. Must usually elapse between the time of loading the fruit into refrigerator cars and its arrival on the market. From one to three days additional maybe necessary before it reaches the retail purchaser. Under these condi tions it is necessary, therefore, that highly perishable fruits, such as plums, be harvested and shipped before becoming tree ripe, if they are to carry satisfactorily. Firmness is not only essential for success ful long-distance shipment but after the necessary rehandling the fruit must be delivered to the retailer in a firm, sound condition. On the other hand, if picked too early, plums will not ripen with good dessert quality. In general, the nearer tree ripe the fruit when picked, the better the dessert quality when fully ripe. The commercial grower and shipper must therefore pick and handle the fruit so it Will arrive in a satisfactory market condition, and at the same time secure the highest possible dessert quality. In View of the insistent demand from dealers that nothing but hard fruit be shipped, there has developed a tendency to harvest a portion of the crop at least, so early as to sacrifice considerable of its eating quality. This investigation accordingly Was undertaken to determine as accurately as possible under existing transportation conditions when the leading plum varieties should be harvested.

Download or read book Russ Daughters written by Mark Russ Federman and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The former owner/proprietor of the beloved appetizing store on Manhattan’s Lower East Side tells the delightful, mouthwatering story of an immigrant family’s journey from a pushcart in 1907 to “New York’s most hallowed shrine to the miracle of caviar, smoked salmon, ethereal herring, and silken chopped liver” (The New York Times Magazine). When Joel Russ started peddling herring from a barrel shortly after his arrival in America from Poland, he could not have imagined that he was giving birth to a gastronomic legend. Here is the story of this “Louvre of lox” (The Sunday Times, London): its humble beginnings, the struggle to keep it going during the Great Depression, the food rationing of World War II, the passing of the torch to the next generation as the flight from the Lower East Side was beginning, the heartbreaking years of neighborhood blight, and the almost miraculous renaissance of an area from which hundreds of other family-owned stores had fled. Filled with delightful anecdotes about how a ferociously hardworking family turned a passion for selling perfectly smoked and pickled fish into an institution with a devoted national clientele, Mark Russ Federman’s reminiscences combine a heartwarming and triumphant immigrant saga with a panoramic history of twentieth-century New York, a meditation on the creation and selling of gourmet food by a family that has mastered this art, and an enchanting behind-the-scenes look at four generations of people who are just a little bit crazy on the subject of fish.
